Circus " Tsirkus" by S. Marshak illustrated by V.Lebedev

While waiting to find the original copy ( very rare and very expensive ) from the 20's, i bought an Estonian version of this stunning book illustrated by one of my favorite illustrator : Vladimir Lebedev.

I have some very interesting Russians articles about Vladimir Lebedev and Samuil Marshak that i have to translate and post on the blog !

In the meantime...

Découpages, papercuts by Pierre Belvès, 1947.

Pierre Belvès is a French illustrator who has illustrated some fifty books for Flammarion from the 40's.

I really like his choice of colors and the simplicity of his beautiful collages.

He also illustrated WONDERFUL books inspired by the Europeen folk costumes that i hope to show you one day !!! :)
